Home buyers and sellers love Agent Pronto.

We’ve helped over 500,000 home buyers and sellers find their ideal real estate agent.

“Our relationship with Justin started as a referral from a trusted Realtor here in Virginia whom we've used on both the sale and purchase of two houses. Our local Realtor was that rare combo of knowledgeable, hard-working, responsive and experienced and we asked her for a recommendation of someone with matching qualities to sell our son's house in Van Nuys. She suggested Justin and we couldn't be happier with the result. He was prompt in responding and diligent in guiding the process along. He is the go-to agent for knowledge of the Van Nuys residential market. That includes, most importantly, a firm understanding of what buyers are looking for, and willing to pay for, in purchasing a house. He was thus able to provide advice and guidance on the refreshing, repairing and improving that would return $1+ in sales price for every $1 spent and, critically, he had access to quality contractors able to get the work done promptly, which meant putting the house on the market when planned.”

“Where can I get started. The recommendation we initially got for Laren fell through by accident. And for some reason we kept pushing to work with Karen. I'm so glad we did. Karen had the experience to walk us through a stressful process of collecting all the information we needed to make the process much easier. We're so happy we were able to land in someone's hands with so much patience and knowledge . Being first time home buyers my wife and I, we definitely needed someone like her. We just want to say thank you. We will definitely keep Karen in mind for family and friends. And you never know. Even for my wife and I in the near future.”

“My husband and I have really enjoyed working with Joel in the process of finding a new home. He has been extremely knowledgeable, patient, and professional. He was timely but not too pushy. He is very detailed-oriented, which we appreciated greatly in the unique home purchase we made. He was very clear in explaining documents, market trends, and legal topics we were less familiar with. He was also very reliable and dependable.”
